** Description changed:
- It seems some font packages has been removed in Karmic vs Jaunty and so
Persian support in Karmic became really poor vs Jaunty. In Jaunty internet
browsers like FF use Nazli az serif for persian sites (which is right facing)
but in Karmic browsers use DejaVu Serif
** Project changed: ubuntu-translations = firefox
** Changed in: firefox
Assignee: Ubuntu Persian Translation Reviewers (ubuntu-l10n-fa) =
(unassigned)
** Summary changed:
- poor persian support in Karmic
+ FreeSerif should not be default Serif font
--
FreeSerif should not be default
Time to report to Firefox maybe.

I spent some time on the issue today, yes Adi you're right I was testing
with a Jaunty DVD which has different packages than the CD version!
pmap grep ttf for firefox in Jaunty CD is:
b2285000 316 - - - r DejaVuSansMono.ttf
b2419000 300 - - -
ttf-freefont has dependency with some other packages... so I just
deleted /usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/ folder and fonts look good
now...

Bugs,
ttt-freefont is part of ubuntu-desktop metapackage.
Have you encountered similar problems with other applications from
Ubuntu ?
Have you tried accessing that page with other browsers like epiphany or
chromium ?
We should find out if this is a Firefox or a generic problem.
Maybe you can contact
epiphany looks like firefox so it has the same issue but chromium looked
fine. seems to be a Gecko bug...

What about gedit? What about:
$ fc-match sans:lang=fa
$ fc-match serif:lang=fa

Hi Behdad, This should not be a gnome bug! gedit looks fine and:
If ttf-farsiweb is not installed:
$ fc-match sans:lang=fa
DejaVuSans.ttf: DejaVu Sans Book
$ fc-match serif:lang=fa
DejaVuSans.ttf: DejaVu Sans Book
If ttf-farsiweb is installed:
$ fc-match sans:lang=fa
DejaVuSans.ttf: DejaVu
You don't have FreeSans in your firefox font configuration by any chance, do
you?
I have no idea what change may be causing this. Was freesans also installed on
the system that is acting properly?

You received this bug
pmap results I sent earlier are from 9.04 live CD and 9.10 live CD under VM so
all configurations are default and there is no FreeSans/FreeSerif in firefox
font configuration as I can see.
ttf-freefont is installed on both 9.04 and 9.10 by default! but Ubuntu 9.04 FF
does not use FreeSerif.

From what I see in both Jaunty and Karmic the language-support-fonts-fa
depends on ttf-farsiweb and ttf-sil-scheherazade
Also it looks like Nazli font is shiped with ttf-farsiweb
Basicaly, from the point of view of Persian language support there were
no changes between Jaunty and Karmic.
Maybe
